Autor Paul Cowan, Paul Cown Rachel Cowan
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 sep 2002

Sometimes we must look into the past in order to face the future.

After growing up as a fully assimilated Jew, Paul Cowan embarked in his mid-thirties upon a journey to discover and appreciate his true identity and heritage. This orphan in history relates his search for these roots, detailing the path he took from his Park Avenue home to nineteenth-century Lithuania to a contemporary Israeli kibbutz, leading to remarkable personal discoveries that will move everyone who has yearned to know more about their past.

"An Orphan in History" is a classically beautiful, inspiring story of how one man evolved from describing himself as an American Jew to an American and a Jew.

This story will inspire you to journey in search of your true self. "
